Market Definition: • Military aerospace coatings are high performance, polyurethane topcoat designed and developed for exterior and interior application on military aircrafts and helicopters. • They can also be used on general aviation and commercial aircraft. The exterior surface of the aircraft or helicopter usually requires attractive painting to maintain the appearance and protection against corrosion. • These coatings are designed with withstand the extreme environmental conditions which requires a strong resistance power.

Market Overview and Trends • Aerospace coating can also be called as aviation coating, aircraft coating or aircraft paint. • The market size of aerospace industries has significantly increased in past few years leading to extraordinary demand of aerospace coatings. • As the requirement of coatings in aerospace industry is highly specific, helicopters, airplanes, jets, and other aircrafts are coated with specialized innovative aerospace coatings. • The aerospace coatings are designed mainly to prolong the life of the aircraft structures. To make these coatings efficient, researchers are opting for advanced technologies such as nanotechnology and chrome-free and powder-based technology that improves the properties of the coating material used. • Nanotechnology based coatings are also used on turbine blades and other mechanical components which have to tolerate high temperatures and friction wear. • Also, research studies are being conducted towards developing radiation-curable coatings for military applications. • Since past few years, Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has taken significant initiatives to explore the limits of where UV-cure coatings can be used for aerospace applications. • Such initiatives tends to fuel the research and development and ultimately open new avenues in the industry.

Market Dynamics:

Factors Influencing the Market Growth: • Governments across the globe are focusing on strengthening their defense sector to become a global super power. • Due to this, the aerospace industry is experiencing a tremendous growth across the globe, which is largely contributing to the growth of military aerospace coating market. • Increasing research and development activities and growing investment in purchasing aircrafts.

Factors Restraining the Market Growth: • Volatile nature of prices of raw material • Safety regulation with respect to the chemicals such as lead

Visiongain publishes Riflescope Market Report 2020-2030

Riflescopes currently are based on advanced optics and there are optics program that are working on digitalization and computerization of optics. For instance, current hunting scopes have the capability to be calibrated to specific calibres which can calculate the bullet’s arced trajectory and can be with integrated laser range finders which display the range to the target on the inside of the scope’s objective lens.

The Market is estimated to be worth $1,583.1 million in 2020 and is expected to record favourable growth rates. There are more than 50,000 military aircraft in service around the globe, out of which the largest share is held by the US with around 13,000 aircraft in service .In spite of the major cuts in the defence budgets of developed economies in the past years, spending is expected to increase in the coming years owing to the rising international tensions.

The global unmanned surface vehicle market was valued at US$645 million in 2019 and is expected to surpass US$2,020.8 million by 2030 (post COVID-19) while growing at a CAGR of over 11% over 2020-2030. Increasing demand for water quality monitoring and ocean data mapping along with growing need to enhance maritime security are key factors driving the growth of the global unmanned surface vehicle market.

“Target Acquisition Systems market set to grow to $15,320mn by 2030” says new Visiongain report

Technological advancements in automatic weapons, rise in military expenditures especially of major economies, ongoing military modernization programs worldwide, growing need for artillery systems by defence forces and increasing adoption rate of Tas-supported equipment by defence forces are some of the key factors which will positively impact the market.
